Omeprazole / Cimetidine Oral Paste for Horses

This commonly compounded preparation combines omeprazole (a proton pump inhibitor) and cimetidine (a histamine-2 receptor antagonist) into a convenient oral paste formulation for horses when a veterinarian determines combination therapy is appropriate. Apple flavor.

Commonly Compounded For:
* Management of equine gastric acid–related conditions
* Horses exhibiting clinical signs consistent with equine gastric ulcer syndrome (EGUS)
* Situations where acid suppression through dual-mechanism therapy is prescribed
* Patients requiring customized dosing not commercially available

Omeprazole works by suppressing gastric acid secretion at the proton pump level, while cimetidine reduces acid production via H2 receptor blockade.
